A Developing Salonโฆ
The high quality of contacts obtained by the exhibitors now places this tourism market among the most promising for the coming years.
It’s true that with the 2nd airport in France, the 1st national cruise port, complete rail and highway networks, and a clientele with strong purchasing power, Nice is, after Paris, the only French metropolis able to position a Tourism Salon on a worldwide scale.
A partner of the Salon, Nice Cรดte d’Azur International Airport, 2nd in France with its 9 million passengers per year, shows daily, with its booking platform “Plaisir de partir”, the enthusiasm of Nice residents for faraway destinations.
In total, nearly 100 tourism professionals representing travel agencies, campsites, airlines and maritime companies, thalassotherapy centers, bed and breakfasts, hotels, museums, French and foreign tourist offices, amusement parks, tour operators, rail carriers, and holiday villages will be attentive to the 15,000 visitors expected at S.i.t.c.a.ยฎ this year.
The tourism offering aims to be as exhaustive as possible by representing several countries but especially by representing most national travel agencies, able to fulfill everyoneโs requests no matter what the coveted destination!
Trips to be won every hour, and folklore animationsโฆ
Throughout the entire duration of the Salon, visitors will have the opportunity to win trips or vacations offered by the exhibitors every hour via a contest. Folkloric animations from different destinations will also mark the route of this 3rd edition.
